There are places where you can
have your prescription MIXED for
est money than we charge' for
COMPOUNDING It. But there
. Is Bo place wli more care is u$ed
"purer drugs dispensed, greater
skill and proficiency exercised than
here. . ,
It Is poor business to haunt the
prescription bargain counter. You
can't irford to DoV : less than we
charge for your prescriptions. Ev
ery cent under our price represents
so much sa;rifice of Purity, Profic
